7 inches?

Wait, Diglett is 0.2m and has 8 inches... Marked +-+-+ (talk) 10:11, 11 July 2013 (UTC) Nevermind, we had stuff like that before.... Marked +-+-+ (talk) 10:24, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Origin?

Could be based off of a hummingbird or a flamingo? What do you guys think it is? Dialgafan1 (talk) 15:21, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Pretty obvious it's based off a flamingo, IMO. Myzou (talk) 17:47, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

What makes you say that? I'm just curious cause a lot of people are thinking Plague doctor or something else because it's apparently just as small as Diglett. Dialgafan1 (talk) 19:41, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

It may evolve to grow a body and some legs, to carry on the theme. Xolotl (talk) 21:01, 11 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
I hope it does. Dialgafan1 (talk) 02:24, 12 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

"Spritzee's fragrance changes based on its diet." - A flamingo's coloration changes based on it's diet. Most are pink because of the seafood they ingest in the form of shrimp, algae, fish, etc. But there are other colors out there. Any google search on Flamingo, color, and diet will pop up a few resources for you. As such, anyone who doesn't believe it's based on a flamingo are just in denial now. :P Myzou (talk) 23:19, 12 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thank you so much for the information! I hope it becomes Fairy/Flying type. Dialgafan1 (talk) 00:09, 13 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Possible origin

Looks like it could be based on a plague doctor, with the face shape, Healer ability, and the perfume theme (plague doctor masks were filled with perfume since it was thought that the plague spread via its smell). - unsigned comment from Silverlucario (talkcontribs)

I agree, it's based on a plague doctor (whose mask was that of a bird), along with an actual avian of some sort. CoolDudeAl (talk) 00:26, 12 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

"A Spritz of Perfume" seems more logical for the first part. Myzou (talk) 02:28, 13 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
